78: Section 78

Everyone originally thought that the fat man would escape, but no one expected him to be intercepted by you.

They all applauded and cheered.

"Good job, female hero!"

At this moment, the female constable looked up at you, and after seeing your appearance, she seemed a little lost.

"Thank you, Miss."

"You're welcome."

Before long, the rich merchant was bound with shackles by the people of Divine Arresting Gate, and his mind was still dazed until he was taken away.

And the young girls were also released from the silver cellar.

Watching this scene, you felt a headache coming on.

Because it wouldn't be long before Yue Lai Tavern would be sealed off, and you would naturally lose your place to stay.

However, after waiting for a long time, you didn't see anyone come to Seal off Yue Lai Tavern, and it even continued to operate as usual.

You felt a slight relief in your heart about this matter.

But when Su Jin called you for dinner that night, you learned the reason behind it.

It turned out that Ling Fei had directly spent thirty thousand taels to bribe the officials, transferring Yue Lai Tavern directly to her name.

You were somewhat astonished by Ling Fei's generosity.

Such extravagance was something even the Su Family at its peak couldn't achieve.

Thirty thousand taels.

It was already half a year's profit for the Su Family.

When you arrived at the private room and saw Ling Fei again, you found that the female constable you had seen during the day was also at the banquet.

Seeing that you had also arrived, the female constable immediately stood up.

"Thank you, Miss, for what happened today."

"It's nothing."

Seeing that you knew each other, Ling Fei was also a little curious.

"I didn't expect you two to know each other."

The female constable then told Ling Fei what had happened during the day, and Ling Fei was surprised by your swift action.

"I didn't expect Xiao Xiyue to be an expert in hidden weapons."

"Please take a seat, the dishes have just arrived, eat while they're hot."

After taking a seat, Ling Fei introduced the female constable, whose name was Kong Bing, a Disciple of Divine Arresting Gate whom she had met yesterday, and whom she had invited today with the intention of admiring a beauty.

Looking at the eloquent Ling Fei, you felt a strange sensation in your heart.

You wondered why Ling Fei, who was disguised as a man, liked women so much.

And judging by Kong Bing's appearance, she clearly hadn't realized that Ling Fei was disguised as a man.

Ling Fei said a lot during the banquet, and you also learned Ling Fei's identity.

According to her, she inherited an incredibly vast commercial Empire, so rich that even the imperial treasury couldn't compare.

You vaguely felt that something was amiss; what kind of organization could be richer than the imperial court?

But you didn't question it, simply enjoyed the meal in peace, and then went upstairs to rest.

In the middle of the night, you began to hear some strange sounds from next door, seemingly high-pitched groans of pain.

You felt some curiosity and directly drilled a hole in the wall with your finger.

In the image, Ling Fei had already removed her male attire, her beautiful face flushed, and three fair, lovely figures intertwined around her...

Chapter 84: Auction Begins, General Guo's Death

You looked at the scene in the image, your face flushed.

Having never seen such a sensual scene, your eyes began to be unable to move away.

You felt an unprecedented new sensation.

Although you were currently in a female body, your heart was still that of a man, so naturally, you couldn't take your eyes off such a scene.

Su Mo stared intently at the image.

He also pulled the view to Ling Fei's room, zooming in and changing the angle to carefully observe the four fair figures on the luxurious bed.

When she was in male attire, it was impossible to tell how large Ling Fei was, but now that the Seal was removed, it was like a large watermelon.

Almost the same size as Xu Miaoyin.

Except for some minor differences in detail and curvature, there was essentially no difference.

Su Mo couldn't help but shake his head.

He wondered how Ling Fei managed to bind herself so flat when dressed as a man.

Your breathing gradually became rapid, and your previously steady Qi became chaotic.

Ling Fei seemed to notice you watching, and her movements became more uninhibited, her voice becoming extremely wanton.

Upon seeing this, you immediately plugged the hole. You had always harbored doubts about this woman's identity and didn't want to have more interactions with her.

Once you met Ku Rong Old Man tomorrow, subdued and abducted him, you probably wouldn't have any further interaction with this woman.

The next day arrived quickly.

After getting up, you immediately packed your luggage and, as you pushed open the door to leave, found Su Jin already waiting outside.

Looking at her gentle and lovely face, you couldn't help but recall the scene from last night.

Such a delicate girl had also been trained into that kind of appearance.

The maids beside Ling Fei included one gentle, one cold and alluring, and one lively, but you liked the gentle Su Jin the most.

Su Jin seemed unaware of your peeping last night and softly said:

"Xiao Xiyue, my Young Master said that if you are going to Pearl Radiance Treasure Pavilion, you can go with us."

Upon hearing Su Jin's words, you immediately refused.

Simply because you had to keep your whereabouts secret so that Ku Rong Old Man wouldn't notice.

Ling Fei's grand display was simply too eye-catching.

"Please thank your Young Master for me."

"As for the rest, I won't bother you further."

After speaking, you directly went downstairs, mounted Red Horse, and prepared to find a hidden place to disguise yourself first.

As you were leaving, you saw Ling Fei open the window and stand by it, quietly watching you.

Upon seeing this, you immediately cupped your hands in a bow.

"Until we meet again!"

After speaking, you left, but you didn't see how fervent Ling Fei's gaze was as she looked at you.

After you left, you immediately headed towards Pearl Radiance Treasure Pavilion.

To avoid trouble, you directly covered your face with a white silk scarf, leaving only your eyes to observe the outside world.

At this time, Pearl Radiance Treasure Pavilion was already filled with Jianghu heroes, wealthy merchants, and tycoons.

There was still an hour until the auction.

Everyone was discussing the treasures to be auctioned and what items they were interested in.

After you entered, you didn't attract any attention.

After sitting down in a corner, you began to observe continuously, wanting to know where Ku Rong Old Man was.

However, you didn't know what Ku Rong Old Man looked like, so you could only constantly listen to the conversations of those around you.

Just then, you suddenly saw a one-armed old man. This one-armed old man had sinister eyes, a bald head, and wore thick clothes that covered all the skin below his neck.

The person sitting next to him seemed to respect him greatly, but beneath that respect, a hint of fear emerged.

Just as you were about to listen carefully to the old man's conversation with those around him, a voice came from beside you.

"Miss, there are no other seats available, may we sit here?"

You looked up and saw two handsome young men looking at you with admiring eyes.

The two men seemed to be wearing the same style of clothing, and both had green steel swords hanging from their waists, appearing to be from the same sect.

During this time, you were all too familiar with such gazes. At first, you were a little troubled, but now you were immune.

"You may."

After you spoke, you said nothing more, and the two young men excitedly sat down on the chairs beside you.

The slightly older man among them cupped his hands to you.

"Thank you, Miss."

"We are from the Qingcheng Sect..."

"Stop!"

You immediately interrupted after hearing their self-introductions.

"This place wasn't contracted by me in the first place, so you don't need to thank me."

"Also, I'm not interested in hearing your origins."

"Just wait patiently for the auction to begin."

Having been rebuffed by you, the two didn't want to make fools of themselves and turned away, no longer bothering you.

You observed the crowd.

For some reason, Ling Fei didn't arrive with her three maids until the auction began.

Considering her immense wealth, it seemed to make no difference whether she came or not.

However, you still couldn't confirm the identity of the one-armed old man.

After some thought, you decided to confirm it after the Millennium Zhu Toad appeared.

As long as the one-armed old man bid, you could confirm that he was Ku Rong Old Man.

The auction quickly began.

One after another, rare treasures and lost Secret Manuals were brought up.

Some of these items were things you greatly needed yourself.

For example, the Qianji Baibian Box, the lifelong masterpiece of the last Mohist Grandmaster.

This box contained one hundred and thirty-nine types of hidden weapons, powerful enough to take an opponent's life with a single strike.

However, the price was beyond your reach.

It was finally auctioned for a high price of seventy thousand taels.

You only had a few hundred taels on you, and seventy thousand taels was simply not enough.

The remaining rare treasures included the Qin King's Bone-Illuminating Mirror, the Dragon-Binding Rope, and the Ten-Thousand-Year Stone Stalactite.

The most fiercely contested item was an Internal Skill Mind-Cultivation Technique called "Crimson Blood, Loyal Heart."

It was said to have been created by Yue Xiaotian, a famous General who was renowned a hundred years ago, and with this technique, he had slain countless Jin soldiers.

He had killed so many that the Jin Empire dared not invade Great Song even now.

Starting from ten thousand taels, the price gradually increased to over one hundred thousand taels.

Ultimately, this Internal Skill Mind-Cultivation Technique, named "Crimson Blood, Loyal Heart," was purchased by two strange individuals dressed in black cloaks.
